Gubahan Hantaran Lesson 101 - How High your Sireh Junjung Need to be???

Sireh Junjung is a beautiful arrangement of betel leaves and flower(s) complete with "ingredients" to eat the betel with i.e. Kapur, Gambir, Tembakau and Bunga Cengkih. Even in our modern days now, Gubahan Hantaran Sireh Junjung is still a must item inside any set of gubahan hantaran. It is considered as the "head" of the gubahan hantaran set. So it is very important for the Sireh Junjung to be beautiful, pleasing to the eye. 

However the design nowadays have evolve so Sireh Junjung does not need to be that sky high anymore.

haha this definitely cannot fit inside a car...and if it's this sky high you'll need to carry the Sireh Junjung on top of your head like the pics below!!!

Very menjunjung adat indeed!!! Pictures taken from here.

A modern Sireh Junjung design emphasis more on the flower arrangement rather than the betel leaves so it looks more like a flower bouquet rather than the traditional "high rise" Sireh Junjung design.

However if your engagement or wedding is held around community that strongly adheres to adat tradisi warisan melayu, a modern design sireh junjung may not be highly regarded/appreciated and thus deem unsuitable, hence it is recommended to opt for the conventional upward "high rise" design. But no worries it doesn't need to be as sky high like the one in the old days XD

And eventhough the deco for gubahan hantaran from the bride side should look more beautiful and more attractive as compared to hantaran from the groom side, but according to tradition Sireh Junjung from the groom side must be higher than Sireh Junjung from the bride side. So in conclusion whatever design or height that you choose, sireh junjung given by the groom must always be higher than the sireh junjung received from the bride. Hope this infos can help you with selecting the design/height of your Sireh Junjung which importantly serves as the head of your gubahan hantaran set. Some of you might wonder what is the role of Tepak Sireh then if the Sireh Junjung is already considered as the head of your gubahan hantaran set. OK this article on Tepak Sireh, we will need to do our research first (takut woh kalo nanti terbagi salah info) and that will be our next gubahan hantaran lesson 101 tips.

Gubahan Hantaran Lesson 101: Polish your Hantaran Fruit to Shiny Perfection

Ever wonder why some pictures of gubahan hantaran buah-buahan featured inside the magazine is all polished to shiny perfection? (most of themlah...ada gaks yang "berlapuk" tapi lepas gaks masuk mag hahaha tapi mmg huduhlah rupanya kan kalo tak berkilauan tuh especially for buah anggur) There's a secret to it!!! You won't get the shiny, glittery look simply just by washing the fruit with water. You need to give the fruit a little "spa treatment" haha...you'll need to "massage"=polish the fruit with cooking oil to make them "shine like a star". I prefer olive cooking oil better dunno whylah maybe it's kind of lighter kut...but our local minyak masak kelapa sawit can do wonder just the same, so do not fret if you don't have olive cooking oil in your home you can still polish your hantaran fruit to shiny perfection with palm oil XD

OK cara nak membuatnya tersangatlah senang, cuma guna kitchen napkin (tissue biasa pown boleh tapi lembik benyek sketlah jadinya nanti tisu tuh) dap sedikit minyak kat napkin tuh and start tapping the fruit skin lightly. My little shortcut secret >> just arrange the fruit to your liking first and then polish only the part that's visible to the eye (hehe yang bawah2 tuh tak nampak kan so boleh dimaafkan kalo tak polish pown takpe ahaks tapi kalo terlebey rajin perfectionist ada banyak masa...boleh jek takde masalah kalo sanggup polish anggur sebijik2x...kene gugusan anggur yang lebat satu malam ah plak kan polish buah2x tuh uhuks gud luck) so I strongly suggest don't waste the time ok...work smart ^^.  Ok bila dah siap massage bahagian yang patut now you can already get a shining, polished fruit inside your diy gubahan hantaran where the fruits nampak best sungguh untuk dimakan (ehem tapi walau pown dah dipolish buah2x tuh still kena basuh dengan air dulu jugak ya sebelum dimakan)

  

OK sume selamat mencuba. Sorry tak dapat buat demo video currently tengah away from home, nanti balik Johor I'll do a quick video guide on these k. And please kindly contact me preferably through sms or comment in fanpage (hmmm now facebook change it to LIKE...so nak panggil like page ke eks haha macam pelik XD...) Thank you and have a nice day everyone!

Gubahan Hantaran Sireh Junjung 2010 - Dazzling Purple

Gubahan Hantaran Sireh Junjung Dazzling Purple in purple and white theme color which is part of gubahan done for Mieza's wedding. Believe me the statice is suppose to be in purple color however my camera capture it as blue...

so u can rest assured the piccas of gubahan in this blog is as it is, tidak dishoot dengan lens2x yang complicated dan canggih2x ribu riban yang bleh buat sume benda nampak cantik tuh (imagine kalo gambo2x gubahan nih diambil dgn slr kamera yang besar bagak tuh fuhhh mesti menipu mata hik3x) so if uols think the gubahan is nice, in reality depan mata gubahan yang sebenar tuh memang lebih cantik dari gambar2x dalam blog nih (uhuks betapa kesian my camera dun even have a stabilizer ok T_T)
